About: The Arrival (D21)   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

The most friendly of encounters between parties were considered curious at best, with large crowds typically coming out to watch a 'UFO' travel overhead. Typically though they were stand-offish meetings between the Colonials and the scrambling military of a Great Power. For example; near London anti-aircraft artillery fired on an appearing Colonial 'airliner', while off Florida a Naval Flight intercepted and attempted to shoot down a Viper wingpair. A Colonial military airship dropped bombs in Ruhr before making its way towards the Atlantic and Colonial troops landed in Texas in large enough numbers and with significant enough firepower to secure themselves and begin expelling or harassing locals while in search of supplies.

  • The most friendly of encounters between parties were considered curious at best, with large crowds typically coming out to watch a 'UFO' travel overhead. Typically though they were stand-offish meetings between the Colonials and the scrambling military of a Great Power. For example; near London anti-aircraft artillery fired on an appearing Colonial 'airliner', while off Florida a Naval Flight intercepted and attempted to shoot down a Viper wingpair. A Colonial military airship dropped bombs in Ruhr before making its way towards the Atlantic and Colonial troops landed in Texas in large enough numbers and with significant enough firepower to secure themselves and begin expelling or harassing locals while in search of supplies. Though violence was sporadic and unplanned, and as such were not sustained- tensions increased rapidly and the opportunity for peaceful meetings reduced while the disoriented Colonials took it as their first priority to assemble and secure themselves. Deal with locals second. The disorder that the Colonials appeared in also led to different ships claiming to speak for the movement and complicated diplomacy. The Arrival itself is considered to have lasted just over a month and a half.
